About this game

In the most distant reaches of the world, magic still exists, embodied by spirits of the land, of the sky, and of every natural thing. As the great powers of Europe stretch their colonial empires further and further, they will inevitably lay claim to a place where spirits still hold power - and when they do, the land itself will fight back alongside the islanders who live there.

Spirit Island is a cooperative settler-destruction strategy game designed by R. Eric Reuss and set in an alternate-history world around A.D. 1700. Players become different Spirits of the land, each with their own unique elemental powers, forced to defend their island home from colonizing Invaders spreading blight and destruction. Your Spirits work with the native Dahan to increase your power and drive the invading colonists from your island in this strategic area-control game.

Spirit Island includes:
• Free access to unlimited plays of the tutorial game
• Create custom games with up to 4 available spirits and play 5 full turns
• 36 Minor Power cards that enhance the abilities of your Spirits
• 22 Major Power cards with more powerful effects to devastate the Invaders
• A modular island, made up of 4 balanced island boards, for a variety of layouts
• Thematic island boards that reflect the canonical island and provide a new challenge
• 15 Invader cards driving a distinctive Invader expansion system
• 2 Blight cards with challenging effects as the Invaders blight the Island
• 15 Fear cards with beneficial effects, earned as you terrify the Invaders

Every rule & interaction in the game has been carefully adapted and thoroughly tested by expert Spirit Island players, as well as the designer himself. If you’re wondering how a certain situation works in Spirit Island, this game is the ultimate rules lawyer!

Features:
• Original dynamic music composed by Jean-Marc Giffin brings Spirit Island to life. Each Spirit has unique musical elements that wax and wane as the game progresses.
• 3D Textured maps bring a realistic look and isometric perspective to the Island.
• 3D Classic maps present the Island the way it looks on the tabletop.
• 2D Classic maps provide a simplified top-down option for all you number crunchers out there.

Great game, controls are a bit finiky on the small screen but okay. The key problem is that there is no offline play which is really poor implementation. Would change to 5 stars if this was fixed but considering this is a deliberate choice and many people, myself included, would like to play offline (eg on a plane, overseas, going rural), this is a pretty unacceptable issue. Edit: changed down to one star since I saw that they actually advertise it as an offline game. Which does not work.

My favorite game. I also own the game and all expansions via steam, it is exceptionally well implemented and highly recommended. This mobile port is decidedly not. EDIT: The UI bug persists, which (according to developer support) classifies my phone as a tablet, causing faulty UI scaling. Handelabra desperately needs to implement manual UI scaling. Until they do so, this will definitely not be recommended.

Hi, thanks for playing! The tutorial and How To Play screen explain how to see cards in full. You can tap and hold, or double tap to see them larger. You can tap again on the text to zoom in even further. Hope that helps!

This is a great adaptation of the board game. I play the game often in physical form and I can say that I am very impressed with how well everything fits in a single(phone) screen. All information is easily accessible, you can quickly click and reference cards, events, adversaries and scenarios, even if summaries for each are provided. The game logic is also impressively well coded, for such a complex game. In short, I can't think of much to complain about here. It's just great.
